The impact of posterior cervix on normal delivery

Even though caesarean sections are becoming more and more popular in modern society, some women still choose natural birth because they cause great harm to women's bodies. In fact, the position of a woman's uterus has a great impact on whether she chooses to give birth naturally. Moreover, the position of the uterus varies from person to person. Some are forward, some are backward. So what impact will a woman's backward uterus have on normal delivery?

1. Does a posterior cervix affect normal delivery?

The posterior position of the cervix refers to the position of the uterus. Generally, after pregnancy, especially in the late stages of pregnancy, the uterus is basically full and there is no distinction between anterior and posterior positions, so it has no effect on fertility. Whether the birth is normal depends on the diameter of the pelvis and the position of the fetus. More importantly, it depends on whether the fetus rotates smoothly after the labor begins. There are many factors, so don't worry. It is important to pay attention to prenatal examinations.

2. How to get pregnant with a retroverted uterus

If you are planning to conceive, you can change your body position during intercourse and kneel on your back so that you can ejaculate the semen into the anterior fornix of the vagina, which is closer to the cervix. Try to create conditions for the sperm to enter the uterus. Or you can use a normal body position during intercourse. After intercourse, the woman should immediately lie prone, put a pillow under her abdomen, and lie still for 30 minutes so that the sperm can enter the cervix smoothly. These methods can increase the pregnancy rate of a retroverted uterus.

3. What are the factors that determine whether a childbirth can be normal?

1. Uterine contraction strength

An important factor for the smooth birth of a baby is that the mother's uterine contractions must be strong, that is, they must reach "labor pains".

2. Uterine contraction law

The intensity of uterine contractions gradually increases as labor progresses, and the intervals between contractions become more important. Only rhythmic, intermittent, and intense contractions can ensure a smooth delivery and fetal safety. Any phenomenon that causes the above-mentioned uterine contraction force to occur irregularly is very likely to lead to dystocia.

3. Birth canal size

The birth canal is divided into bony birth canal and soft birth canal. What we usually call "pelvis" refers to the bony birth canal. People with big butts usually have larger pelvises. The "pelvis" is part of the birth canal. The size and shape of the pelvis are closely related to childbirth.

4. Fetal position

The main factor of most dystocia is not abnormal pelvic measurement, but because the fetus is large or too large, the position of the fetal head is abnormal, the fetal position is abnormal, etc., which makes the originally normal pelvis "abnormal and narrow", making delivery difficult or even causing dystocia.

5. Fetal size

During delivery, if the baby is too large (weight > 4 kg), it will be difficult for the baby's head to pass through the mid-pelvis (the narrowest part of the pelvis) because the baby's head is the largest part of the body in diameter.
